Oops! Sorry I missed Monday Morning "Meeting". I've been doing some reading. Here's what I found that makes good sense when it comes to handling the everyday stresses that go along with our stay-at-home order:
There are steps anyone can take when feeling anxiety and stress levels rising:
Motion. We’ve got to get up every 60-90 minutes and move around. Shoot some basketball. Take walks. Run. Play tennis. We need endorphins to flow.
Margin. We must make sure our stress isn’t due to an overcrowded schedule. Be realistic about what can get done each day. Reduce noise or clutter if possible.
Mindfulness. Instead of thinking about everything at once, try focusing your mind and breathing. Mono-task, don’t multitask. Pick one thing to get done and then move on to the next thing.
Management. Part of handling stress issues is learning to manage stress: limit time on social media; get enough sleep; eat well; practice self-talk.
